A stratified random sample of 401 participants was taken from three sites of study (Maluti, Seboche and Paray) in rural Lesotho in an attempt to study the relationship between awareness about HIV/AIDS and 55 socio-economic and demographic variables. Opsomming In ‘n poging om die verband tussen die bewustheid van HIV/VIGS en 55 sosio-ekonomiese en demografiese veranderlikes te bestudeer, is ‘n gestratifiseerde ewekansige steekproef van 401 deelnemers in drie studie-areas in die platteland van Lesotho (Maluti, Seboche en Paray) gedoen. *Please note: This is a reduced version of the abstract.
